A. 65%
B. 64%
C. 60%
D. 68%
E. None of these
Sol. Lets assume the number be 'x'.
Difference in result = 5x/3 - 3x/5
Percentage error = [(5x/3 - 3x/5)/(5x/3)]*100 = 64%.
2. The average weights of 3 groups of friends of 50, 30 and 20 members respectively are 50kg, 52kg and 55kg. What is the average weight of all friends taken together ?
A. 51
B. 51.6
C. 52.6
D. 55.3
E. None of these
Sol. = [(50*50)+(30*52)+(20*55)]/100
= 51.6 kg.
3. Present ages of father and the son are in the ratio of 6:! respectively. 4 yrs hence the ratio of their ages will become 4:! respectively, what is the son's present age ?
A. 6
B. 8
C. 9
D. 4
E. None of these
Sol. Son's age = x
Father's age = 6x
According to the question, (6x+4)/(x+4) = 4/1
Solving, x = 6 years.
4. P is twice as good a workman as Q and Q is twice as good a workman as R. If P and Q can together finish a piece of work in 4 days, then R can do it by himself in ?
A. 20
B. 24
C. 28
D. 32
E. None of these
Sol. R completes the work in 'y' days
Q completes the work in 'y/2' days
P completes the work in 'y/4' days
In 1 day P and Q working together,
= 4/y + 2/y
= 6/y
Thus, complete the work in 'y/6' days.
y/6 = 4
y = 24 days.
5. A boy has 6 friends to invite . In how many ways can he send the invitation cards to them, if he has three servants to carry the cards ?
A. 216

6. 25.675% of 1321 + 64.328% of 4001= ___?__
A. 2912
B. 3016
C. 3126
D. 3254
E. 3348
Sol. A. 2912

A. 2380
B. 2381
C. 2382
D. 2383
E. None of these
Sol. D : 2383
? =678543 / (11.001 ×25.875)
? = 678543 / 284.7
? = 2383
8. 118.07 × 13.49 + 169.8% of 784 = ?
A. 2870
B. 2760
C. 2930
D. 2650
E. 2860
Sol. C: 2930
? nearly equals to 118 × 13.5 + (170 * 785)/100
= 1593 + 1334.5 = 2927.5 nearly equals to 2930
9. 49.80 % of 750.08 ÷ 11.02 = 56.09 – ?
A.34
B.16
C.22
D.27
E.None of these
Sol. C : 22
50% of 750÷11 = 56 – x
375/11 = 56 – x
34.09 = 56 – x
X = 56 – 34.09 = 21.91 = 22
10. 17.38% of 1557 – 21.012 × 8.97 = ?
A. 100
B. 175
C. 95
D. 80
E. 150
Sol. D : 80
? nearly equals to (17.4*1550)/100 - 21/9
= 269.7 - 189 = 80.7 nearly equals to 80.
